The use of monies so transferred and the interest income from such monies shall be restricted to the purposes specified in Section 39A of Article X of the Oklahoma Constitution. The Board shall establish any accounts and subaccounts within the Statewide Water Development Revolving Fund and Water Resources Fund necessary to implement the provisions of this paragraph. B.
